Any Synctoy like software that supports scheduling and multiple folders selection? I need to synchronize One folder which consists of subfolders from multiple locations. Also changes should be 2 way, meaning file deleted from one location should be deleted in other and should not follow source and destination analogy of rsync.
Pratik is not 100 % correct; Unison does have a nice GUI:
It can be helpful in getting you started.
However, it is also possible to run from the command line, which makes it easy to put in a cron job, so that you can schedule it to run every 15 minutes or whatever you want. You'll typically create a profile with a certain name, you can do this in the GUI, but then you can run that profile from the commandline like
unison -batch name_of_your_profile
This is useful since you can then make a cronjob out of it. Type crontab -e, then paste in the line
*/15 * * * * /usr/bin/unison -batch name_of_your_profile &> /tmp/unison-cron.log
and exit the editor. Your unison command will now run every 15 minutes, and output any errors to the file /tmp/unison-cron.log.
Actually, it seems like there's even a GUI for cron, Gnome Schedule(friendly intro to it here). Never tried it, but I guess it makes running Unison from cron even more user-friendly …
See also the Ubuntu wiki page on Unison.
Unison is quite powerful, I've used it for a long time to sync stuff between two laptops, a desktop and a remote server … It's quite good at ensuring you get the newest and correct content, and if there's a conflict it's easy to merge. It's not a backup tool, though; if you delete everything on one end, you'll find it deleted on the other end too ;-)
